Computing spherical harmonic decompositions is a ubiquitous technique that arises in a wide variety of disciplines and a large number of scientific codes. Because spherical harmonics are defined by integrals over spheres, however, one must…
Analogues of classical combinatorial identities for elementary and homogeneous symmetric functions with coefficients in Yanigian are discussed. As a corollary, similar relations are deduced for shifted Schur functions.
In this paper we study the harmonic elements of (convolution) Markov maps associated to (ergodic) actions of locally compact quantum groups on ($\sigma$-finite) von Neumann algebras. We give several equivalent conditions under which the…
In this paper, we look at the number of factorizations of a given permutation into star transpositions. In particular, we give a natural explanation of a hidden symmetry, answering a question of I.P. Goulden and D.M. Jackson. We also have a…
We develop a clear connection between deFinetti's theorem for exchangeable arrays (work of Aldous--Hoover--Kallenberg) and the emerging area of graph limits (work of Lovasz and many coauthors). Along the way, we translate the graph theory…
In the paper we analyze the quantum-mechanical equivalence of the metrics of a centrally symmetric uncharged gravitational field. We consider the Schwarzschild metrics in the spherical, isotropic and harmonic coordinates, and the…
Using an abstract notion of semiclassical quantization for self-adjoint operators, we prove that the joint spectrum of a collection of commuting semiclassical self-adjoint operators converges to the classical spectrum given by the joint…
In this paper, we show a new relation between phase transition in one-dimensional Statistical Mechanics and the multiplicity of the dimension of the space of harmonic functions for an extension of the classical transfer operator. We…
We present a unified, SI-consistent framework to constrain minimal SME coefficients $a_\mu$ and $b_\mu$ using magnetically confined two-dimensional electron systems under a uniform magnetic field. Working in the nonrelativistic…
We prove the regularity of weak 1/2-harmonic maps from the real line into a sphere. The key point in our result is first a formulation of the 1/2-harmonic map equation in the form of a non-local linear Schr\"odinger type equation with a…
Let $f=h+\overline{g}$ be a harmonic univalent map in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$, where $h $ and $g$ are analytic. We obtain an improved estimate for the second coefficient of $h$. This indeed is the first qualitative improvement after the…
Recently in graph theory several authors have studied the spectrum of the Cayley graph of the symmetric group S_n generated by the transpositions (1, i) for 2 <= i <= n. Several conjectures were made and partial results were obtained. The…
Let $f$ be a normalized primitive Hecke eigen cusp form of even integral weight $k$ for the full modular group $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$. For integers $j \geq 2$, let $\lambda_{sym^j f}(m)$ denote the $m$th Fourier coefficient of the $j$th…
We introduce Frobenius-untwists of the variants of topological cyclic homology, following Manam. Using these, we construct modifications of the free loop space over the sphere spectrum, and show that they provide even periodic spectral…
We define a sextic invariant J on the seven-dimensional space of degree three spherical harmonics and show that J is positive if and only if the nodal set of the spherical harmonic contains the vertices of exactly two regular icosahedra.…
The differential equation proposed by Frits Zernike to obtain a basis of polynomial orthogonal solutions on the the unit disk to classify wavefront aberrations in circular pupils, is shown to have a set of new orthonormal solution bases,…
We study the $6j$ symbol for the conformal group, and its appearance in three seemingly unrelated contexts: the SYK model, conformal representation theory, and perturbative amplitudes in AdS. The contribution of the planar Feynman diagrams…
We establish a novel improvement of the classical discrete Hardy inequality, which gives the discrete version of a recent (continuous) inequality of Frank, Laptev, and Weidl. Our arguments build on certain weighted inequalities based on…
Laplacian eigenmodes on homogeneous Clifford--Klein factors of the three--sphere are obtained as pullbacks of harmonics on the orbifolded two--sphere using the Hopf map. A method of obtaining these polyhedral, or crystal, harmonics using…
This work highlights the existence of partial symmetries in large families of iterated plethystic coefficients. The plethystic coefficients involved come from the expansion in the Schur basis of iterated plethysms of Schur functions indexed…
